Lapis Lazuli Collection






























Lapis Lazuli
It is a gemstone in deep blue with golden inclusions of pyrites which shimmer like little stars. It was among the first gemstones to be worn as jewellery and was already popular thousands of years ago among the people of Mesopotamia, Egypt, Persia, Greece and Rome. In other cultures, lapis lazuli was regarded as a holy stone. Particularly in the Middle East, it was thought to have magical powers. Countless signet rings, scarabs and figures were wrought from the blue stone which Alexander the Great brought to Europe. There, the colour was referred to as 'ultramarine', which means something like 'from beyond the sea'.

It is known as "Psychic facilitator." Used by ancient Egyptians to access sacred knowledge. Cleanses the mind body and spirit of toxins and negativity. Key words are will, perfection, awareness. Encourages integrity in relationships. Strengthens the immune system. 6th chakra. Sagittarius and Aries stone. #1, #7, and #9 vibrations.
